Martini Henry for Gun Stories

[Marshal Halloway]

Hey folks!

One of the episodes of the upcoming season of Gun Stories is all about the Martini Henry.

We're looking for a working rifle to be used in one of the segments. Filming is planned for the last week of April.

Any help is appreciated.

It's a shame filming can't wait until June. I'm reasonably sure we'll have at least one at the Grand Muster. In fact if there was a way you could attend there would probably be a bunch of rare/unusual firearms used to compete there that you could film.

I know, I know. I sound like a broken record Sorry

[Delmonico]

And there will be decent food.

Another advantage to filming in June would be that the rifle would be accompanied by someone in an appropriate uniform, and that's shot it enough to really know how to use it in action.  I'll bet you could get quite a few stories from just what shows up in June!

Rifle or Carbine or both?

[Niederlander]

There always has to be an overachiever in the group!  (It would be cool if they used both.)

[Marshal Halloway]

Rifle or carbine? At this point in production, we settle for whatever we can get hold of.

It can also be a converted model for centerfire cartridges.

Rattlesnake Jack is either bringing a Martini Henry or a Snyder Rifle. If Guns Garrett can make it he's planning on bringing the Martini Henry Carbine.

Guns would be somewhat close to you if you have to shoot earlier than June

I take it it is in your neck of the woods?
